Preparation
Season steaks liberally with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a pan over medium-high heat and sear steaks for about 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove steaks from heat and let rest 5–10 minutes before slicing.
To make the relish, heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a sauté pan. Sauté onions for 5–8 minutes, until tender and translucent. Add honey and mustard, then simmer for 2 minutes. Add apple cider vinegar and salt, then cook for 3 minutes, or until vinegar reduces by half.
For the aioli, combine roasted tomato pesto and mayonnaise and mix well.
To construct the sliders, cut rolls in half and spread each side with aioli. Thin-slice the steak and distribute evenly on the rolls. Put 2 teaspoons of relish on top of the steak and finish with top bun.
